Party Vote and Lost deposits

170 candidates in single-member, non-university, seats plus 5 candidates in university seats secured less than 12.5% of the vosts cast and thus should have lost their £150 deposits (see list). However, The Times reported that 168 candidates lost their deposits, including 5 in university seats under STV. Although we agree on all the other parties, The Times reported that 64 Liberals lost their deposits, while my calculations suggest that this figure should be 72. There is a fuller discussion of the problem here.
